AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'A narrative of personal loss has now supplanted an earlier narrative of
rescue and Empire settlement in the history of child migration to Australia
in the twentieth century. This article outlines and seeks to understand how
these narratives arose. The discussion then attempts to provide another
way to explain child migration which embraces changing contexts while
being based on a life cycle analysis of the experiences of child migrants
both prior to and in the aftermath of migration.' (Author's abstract)
